“Tampa Fire Rescue, alongside Hillsborough County and our emergency management team have plans in place to respond to communicable disease threats, but each type presents unique challenges,” Castor said.  “We will remain flexible and adjust our plan as necessary and as we receive guidance from the CDC and government health agencies.”
